Road accidents can happen in the blink of an eye.
Recently, one motorcycle collided with another on the Bukit Timah Expressway (BKE).
Dashcam footage showed the rider cruising from the first to the third lane when it clipped the front of another motorcycle.
As a result of the collision, the riders and their pillions were flung off the vehicles.
